MRE Pound Cake Variety Pack (12-Pack) - Vanilla, Applesauce, Marble (2.5oz ea)– Long Shelf Life – 2023+ Production Dates by Long Life Food Depot – Meals Ready to Eat

I did not expect to actually like the flavor, but to my surprise, for the most part, they were great! You know, for that late evening desire to have something sweet, but not have to make a batter, and bake it. One of the Applesauce cakes was a bit dried out, but that was probably during the manufacturing process. A bit expensive, I supposed, but yesterday I looked at prices in a convenience store, and was shocked! This doesn't seem overly expensive after all. BTW, the second applesauce cake was great! I probably need to get out from the field more.

Need to have some king of clear packing date. Found only 3 different kinds in one of two boxes ordered. So I tried one of each. Didn’t open second box yet. Hoping it will have more variety. I would definitely buy again, but with caution since is hard to know how old thing are or have gotten without dates on packaging. Besides that, best value for the quality hands down.

While the flavor was good it was not very moist, in fact pretty dry. But I’m sure would be tasty in a sheltering situation.

My wife loves the MRE cakes that we get out of the MRE’s we eat when we are hiking, but there are only a select few that have the snacky cakes in them. So I did some looking and found these on amazon thru this vendor and ordered 2 boxs. My wife loves them and always has a few in her bag when she or both of us go on a adventure thru the wilderness. It’s a great item to have on the side for a quick bite while on the go and are all individually sealed and have the freshest made date on them of this year, 02/2020 and should last at least 5 years but they will be eaten before that.

For MRE cakes it was pretty good. The vanilla, apple sauce and cinnamon bun all tasted good. Will definitely be buying more for my next camping trip.

These have a listed shelf life of 5-years. The ones I just received are 1-1/2 years old so only 3-1/2 years remaining. The date codes are on each individual package. "3240" means 2023 - 240th day of the year (i.e. August 28, 2023). That was 17 months before they were received.

We was so surprised how good these cake taste . Yes they are slightly on the dry side but remember these are MREs . I think they would satisfy any sweet tooth . When children like them you know you have a good thing .

I keep getting this good cake
